needed.
“If we are done now, General. I need to make arrangements
for my time off, and I still haven’t had my bath yet, so if you’ll excuse me.”
With a twist of her fingers, the lavender silk pooled at her
feet. She sashayed to the bathroom with an extra swish of her hips.
Those flares of heat washing over her back were becoming
incredibly addictive.
Lucian stared at the princess’s delectable backside with his
mouth agape until she closed the bathroom door between them with a knowing
smile on her pouty lips. He pressed the heel of his hand into the erection
threatening to bust through the zipper of his jeans and stifled a moan.
Damn the woman! Did she not know she was asking him to
tackle her to the tile floor and feed the throbbing length of his cock into her
pussy, whether she was ready for him or not?
Yes, the little witch did.
The princess was playing with an explosive that would burn
them both. This all-consuming need to savor her ripeness was a thousand times
more unbearable than it had been on Skandavia. At least then he had the
overseeing eye of her father and his other duties to temper the fascination,
but Amaryllis in her gloriously bare flesh was too much to withstand up close
and personal. And he was not unaware of the fact that she was going to make the
time they spent together very personal.
No! He would not think of his charge in such a manner. They
may not be in Skandavia anymore, but she was still royalty and he, her servant.
Keeping her safe was his top priority.
The sound of water flowing from pipes drew his attention to
the flimsy door and he thought of a very naked princess on the other side.
He raced from the room with his hands clenched at his sides
and went in search of a moment of privacy.
Dhavin was in the living room, his attention riveted to the
large-screen television. The remote was in his hand and he was laughing as the
channels flipped in rapid succession. A pair of breasts flashed across the
screen and Dhavin switched back to the channel that showed two women frolicking
in a swimming pool.
He sank on the ottoman and scooted closer to the action. “I
love this planet.”
Lucian backtracked and found sanctuary in the kitchen. Why
he thought the space would be full of stainless steel and cold tile was another
example of how little he knew about Amaryllis. The warm wood and creamy granite
was as inviting as the woman was outrageous.
He unbuttoned the cuff of his shirt around his left wrist
and pulled the fabric back to his elbow. He turned the knob of the stove until
the flame ignited, rising tall and white hot. With a deep breath of fortitude,
he held his forearm over the fire. The stench of burning hair made his eyes
water, but he held firm, biting back a howl of pain. His honor demanded he be
at his best. Anything else was unacceptable.
Chapter Four
“Look at that!” Amaryllis pointed out her window. Against
the bright-blue sky gliders in brilliant reds and yellow spiraled gently from
the cliffs down to a wide-open field. “Have you ever seen anything so amazing?
Lucian, you must take me.”
He glanced over his shoulder at her with a raised brow
before he turned his attention back to the road. “No.”
Big surprise there. “Dhavin, you’ll take me, surely.”
“I’m not too certain.” He gazed up with trepidation from his
seat in the front of the car. “I don’t think I can trust a bit of colored
fabric to prevent me from plunging to the earth.”
“Where is your courage? I thought you two were Llanos ?
I bet you wouldn’t even go bungee jumping with me.”
“Do I want to know what that is?”
“A giant elastic band is tied to your waist or ankles, and
then you jump off a high bridge. Just when you think you will crash upon the
rocks, the elastic snaps you back and you go up and down until your momentum
stops.”
Dhavin’s pallor took on a greenish tinge. “That sounds
dreadful.”
“Oh it’s great fun.” She leaned forward and poked
